The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 773 The Heir of Iwagakure

Hidden Rock Village.

Tsuchikage's office.

The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, is 79 years old, and has an exceptionally long service life.

In the ninja world where the average age of death is no more than forty, this is already considered a rare longevity.

The key point is that the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, is in good spirits. Apart from his back problems, he is arguably the strongest fighter in Iwagakure.

However, this strongest combat power will now become "one of".

In front of a huge mountain wall, a blond-haired youth was practicing ninjutsu.

"Dust Release: Dust Explosion!" Deidara waved his hands, throwing out a large number of bright orbs of light.

These light clusters are extremely unstable, appearing and disappearing in a distorted shape in mid-air.

However, once they touched the mountain wall in front of them...

hum...

A flash of white light appeared instantly.

These clusters of light immediately expanded into the shape of a cross.

Numerous cross-shaped pits have been gnawed into the hard stone wall.

"Giggle cluck..."

A large amount of rubble collapsed, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Still not stable or covert enough, hmm!"

Deidara is already 19 years old, and in the past few years he has entered a period of rapid improvement in strength.

Because he wasn't just messing around in the Akatsuki organization, he was always carefully trained by Onoki.

He is much more mature than Deidara in the original timeline, both in terms of ninjutsu and mental strength.

Moreover, as a genius teenager, he has successfully modified Dust Release in just a few years.

Although the "Dust Explosion Technique" is not very stable yet, the ball of light he throws out not only consumes less energy than Dust Release, but is also more flexible than ordinary Dust Release.

For artists, the happiest thing is the gradual formation of their new art form.

Deidara is very serious when it comes to artistic matters, which is why he has been able to successfully modify Dust Release over the years.

"Brother Deidara!" A familiar voice rang out, and Deidara turned around to see Kurotsuchi flying over.

Kurotsuchi is too old to use the Light-Heavy Rock Technique; it's obvious that Onoki added it to her and then came looking for her.

Deidara is currently on a mountaintop. After all, his experiment with Dust Release was too dangerous; one wrong move could have resulted in someone's death.

Kuroto landed quickly, looking at Deidara with admiration:

"Deidara-nii! How's the dust blast technique coming along!?"

Kurotsuchi has liked Deidara for many years, which is basically no secret in Iwagakure.

Deidara easily mastered Dust Release a few years ago, and Onoki had already designated him as the village's successor. Naturally, he was happy that his granddaughter was getting close to Deidara.

After all, a talented young man like Deidara is a perfect match for Kurotsuchi.

Onoki had this idea, and his staff also gave Kurotsuchi some suggestions.

Deidara's personality and preferences are too distinct; they simply had Kurotsuchi cater to his tastes, and now the two have become quite close.

"It's already taking shape; the next step is stabilization and transformation!"

"When Deidara's Dust Explosion Technique can transform, you have to show it to me first!"

Kurotsuchi tugged at Deidara's arm, her gesture somewhat coquettish.

Deidara dedicated everything to art, but was actually a little slow to understand matters of the heart.

However, he and Kurotsuchi had gone through hardships together in previous years (they were captured by the Uchiha clan together).

Over the years, only Heitu has truly understood him (by catering to his preferences), and he still likes his younger sister Heitu very much.

The two became very close.

Deidara turned and gave Kurotsuchi a charming smile, then casually patted her short hair:

"Of course, we'll definitely show it to you once it's successfully developed."

They didn't actually have a romantic relationship, but Deidara's looks were just too irresistible to Kurotsuchi, and she felt happy whenever she was in front of Deidara.

"What did the old man send you here for?"

Deidara asked, since Ōnoki wouldn't have used the Super Light-Heavy Rock Technique on Kurotsuchi to fly over if nothing was wrong.

The smile and the head pat just now made Hei Tu blush, and he almost forgot why he came over.

"Ah..." Kurotsuchi suddenly realized that he had important business to attend to.

"Grandpa wants you to come over. Konoha Village has been attacked."

Deidara exclaimed in surprise, "Someone actually attacked Konoha?"

Kurotsuchi shook her head: "I don't know the specifics either. We only have firsthand information right now, but Konoha has suffered heavy casualties."

"Let's go back first." Deidara was a little curious, took out a lump of clay from his pouch, chewed it a few times, and started mixing it.

With a quick rub of his hands, he created a clay bird with a pop!

Deidara straddled him, while Kurotsuchi sat behind him, her arms naturally wrapped around his waist.

With a flap of its wings, the clay bird soared into the sky.

Deidara had blocked the fierce wind outside, and Kurotsuchi leaned her face against Deidara's back, her face slightly flushed.

Although she possessed Onoki's Super Light-Heavy Rock Technique, how could Kurotsuchi refuse the opportunity to ride with Deidara?

Although Kurotsuchi loved following Deidara around when she was little, it was just a vague, innocent liking.

But now that Kurotsuchi has grown up, she knows very well that she likes Deidara.

I just wonder when Deidara will finally figure it out?

Fortunately, I was always the only one by Deidara's side.

Thinking of this, Hei Tu chuckled to himself.

"We've arrived, Black Soil."

Deidara said he had brought down the clay bird.

His clay bird was very fast, or perhaps the black clay felt so happy that it seemed to be moving very fast.

Kurotsuchi, her face slightly flushed, jumped off Deidara's back, though she longed for the opportunity to be close to him.

But I know that I should act naturally so as not to offend people. There's plenty of time in the future, so there's no rush now.

Deidara was unaware of Kurotsuchi's ulterior motives; he was more curious about what was happening in Konoha.

He took Kurotsuchi to the Tsuchikage's office.

"Old man! What's going on in Konoha?"

Deidara was always a free spirit who didn't care about details.

He rarely called Onoki-sensei; he usually called him "old man."

Onoki never cared about this, but when he saw Kurotsuchi following behind Deidara like a timid wife, a smile appeared on his face.

He beckoned Deidara over and pointed to the documents on the table, which were obtained by Iwagakure's spies from Konoha.

"Take a look."

Deidara picked it up and quickly browsed through it.

Empty-handed? Shukaku? Poisoning?

Since this is firsthand information, the details are not yet clear, but Deidara was somewhat surprised.

Several thousand people died in Konoha.

Oh, the outer city...

Deidara has been to Konoha in recent years and knows what the outer city is like; those areas are not the core area of ​​Konoha at all.
